Retooling the Business Model

The launch of an account based marketing business (SourceSelect) that scaled to seven figures in revenue in less than a year, reduced reliance on traditional digital advertising revenue, drove profit margins from low teens to mid twenties and helped “turn dumb leads into smart leads,” earning SourceMedia the overall Connectiv People’s Choice Award. See how SourceMedia is making the strategic and technological decisions to create a modern (and profitable) advertising and marketing services business.

Most Disruptive Innovator

Recognized as one of the world’s top 300 IP strategists by IAM Magazine, Alex Butler revolutionized the way the team of data scientists, journalists and editors approach innovation at Bloomberg Law’s Corporate, IP and Privacy product offerings. He elevated the skill-set of his editorial team and integrated data scientist and analytics roles into his organization, all while providing upgrades to the platform that drove up revenue for Bloomberg BNA’s Privacy & Data Security product by nearly 100% in 2016 and set a comparable pace of growth for 2017.
